This article claims that its subject has written more than 70 songs for country artists, which would make him notable per WP:MUSIC. However, I can't find a single reliable third-party source to verify any of this article's content; the only hits I'm turning up with are trivial in nature if at all. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 01:56, 16 April 2008 (UTC) Withdrawn The Dove Award win is good enough for me. This article is still thin on reliable sources, but he seems to just barely meet WP:MUSIC. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 03:05, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

 * Weak keep He's described as a "famed songwriter" in the second article here, and he seems to have won a Dove Award. If someone can dig up more information, I'll change my !vote to a solid keep. Zagalejo^^^ 02:35, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * It doesn't look like Boudreaux won the Dove Award himself, but rather shared it with Jeff Silvey, the artist who cut the award winning album. Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 02:45, 16 April 2008 (UTC) Never mind, I misread. He produced the album. I'm still not quite inclined to withdraw, but might if more sources turn up.  Ten Pound Hammer  and his otters • (Broken clamshells•Otter chirps) 02:51, 16 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep—I would say that winning the Dove Award is enough for WP:MUSIC criterion #8, and it suggests that there are likely to be more sources out there. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 02:58, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
